<h1>Alva Couch's Photography Gallery</h1>

I am an avid amateur landscape photographer working in 35mm, medium
format, and 4x5.  Remarkably for a Computer Science professor, I work

this pastime.  Time (as well as the lack of a transparency scanner)
permits only a small sampling. I have also done a small amount of

camera).<p>
